• 3 PANEL DIGIPACK EDITION

Every new album by saxophonist, flutist, and composer Anna Webber feels like a revelation, and a huge step forward in a discography of the highest quality. Anna Webber‘s sim-pletrio2000 which comes a decade after the release of the group’s debut Simple, expresses their deep curiosity and tireless creativity. At the intersection of avant-garde jazz and new classical music, Webber’s work has been hailed as “vi-sionary and captivating”.

With her previous albums, she has regularly ranked at the top of the relevant charts. The Simple Trio is her longest-running band. Since its formation in 2013, few bands in improvised music have displayed such an ef-fervescent energy and adventurous spirit. The group, which also includes drummer John Hollenbeck and pianist Matt Mitchell – both accomplished composers and bandleaders – makes music that is anything but ‚simple‘. But the complex-ity of the music, which cannot be ignored, is accompanied by a stormy cheerfulness, and Peter Margasak raves about the „addictive energy and interplay occurring within the trio at all times.“
